The Judy Chicago Art Education Award funded by Mary Ross Taylor was established in 2011 by Through the Flower in collaboration with Penn State School of Visual Arts. This award supports projects by educators, artists, and scholars who use the Judy Chicago materials found at any of the three institutions comprising the Judy Chicago Portal with an annually awarded cash prize and certificate.

The Judy Chicago Portal brings together the Judy Chicago archives collectively housed at:

● Penn State University Libraries, Eberly Family Special Collections Library, which houses the Judy Chicago Art Education Collection and the K-12 “Dinner Party” Curriculum Project.

● The National Museum of Women in the Arts, Betty Boyd Dettre Library and Research Center, home of the Judy Chicago Visual Archive.

● Harvard University’s Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America where Judy Chicago’s paper archives are found.

● Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the Brooklyn Museum

Criteria: Applicants must show evidence of primary research or teaching projects related to one of these four archives. Projects should encompass feminist goals such as understanding and appreciation for the achievements of women; gender equity/justice; or use of Judy Chicago’s Participatory Art Pedagogy. The applicant’s project must also include a public presentation such as a lecture, publication, or class activity.

This year’s prize of $1500 and certificate will be presented on July 24, 2020, at Through the Flower in Belen, NM. Award will include travel and two nights stay at the Baymont hotel in Belen, NM.
